Sackboy: A Big Adventure is quietly one of PlayStation 5's best launch games. We gave it an 8/10 in our review, calling it a "brilliant platformer with tons of imaginative ideas". However, it isn't quite getting the attention it deserves. Perhaps, if you won't listen to us, you'll listen to Ariana Grande.
The American singer is clearly a fan of Sackboy's latest outing, as she's been playing it in her downtime. She says as much in the below clip. Responding to a fan's question about a video game-related lyric from her song 'Six Thirty', she directly calls out the colourful platformer:
She says she's recently beaten the game, and calls it a "doozy". As you can see, this has caught the attention of the official Sackboy Twitter account.
So, there you have it. Ariana Grande's been loving Sackboy: A Big Adventure. We wonder if she has the Platinum Trophy?

I want to buy the game (and demon's souls) after I beat jedi fo, ghost, days gone, and the division 2 single player story
Bottom of barrel officially scraped.
Hold the front page!!!! 'Z lister and pointless sack of flesh plays video game'
@stupidget She's hardly a z-lister now, is she?
Great game, but clearly a slow news day lol. Maybe should of gone with the bidding auction on CDPR data and buyer.
@get2sammyb I suppose the fact that she has a net worth of $150mill raises her slightly higher in the celebrity stakes than a Love Island stinker, but, only slightly
I started playing it recently and is a fantastic game, I definitely think is underrated and is just being dismiss cause well is Sackboy.
really has been a slow news week, the articles are just getting more and more random and useless on this site.
remember when we had interesting articles too do with gaming, not what random game , a random celebrity is playing
So have I.
Don't hear me bragging about it though, do ya !
@Juanalf I agree.
It's a smashing little platformer that's full of charm.
Not in Mario's league but no less enjoyable.
I mean, sheβs alright but sheβs no Britney π #amiright
I actually think this will do wonders for sales tbf to them.
Wow. Loads of people in these comments living under a rock. Kinda disappointed at the meanness of it all. Spectacular game, hope it gets even a few more eyes on it from this.
I think this is great. How refreshing to hear someone famous actually being genuine. Lets be honest, if this was for show, she would have gone for the obvious answers like animal crossing, fortnite etc, so i genuinely believe this to be true. Sackboy is hardly a household name.
Hopefully Sumo Digital get more sales off the back of this
At least it wasn't Bl00dy Fortnite!!
Lol well this is a pretty useless article now ain't it?
@stupidget I have no opinion on Ariana Grande, but she has 220 million Instagram followers. That's someone you want saying good things about your game. Fact.
@Max2574 If you want Cyberpunk news just watch the youtuber legacykillahd, he has decided to dedicate every second he is on this planet to Cyberpunk π power to him if that's what he loves.
Also I don't understand the viciousness with some of the comments here, would you be that mean spirited if Bobby Kotick or Andrew Wilson had complemented Sackboy? (and they actually deserve your hatred).
I well fancied her in VICTORiOUS. Er, not that I watched it or anything. ....What's that behind you?
**scarpers**
@Kidfried I'm not very familiar with her work (just enough to know it's definitely not my cup of tea) but saying she has no talent as a singer is just wrong
Why do people have beef with her ππ
Just read the article and move on without being a complete tit π
I think people forget these celebrities have down time too and do normal things. Itβs not like she a clown like 90% of celebrities are.
I wanna know what Gemma Collins is playing at the moment.
I don't really.
I couldn't give 2 f**ks.
If I'm honest.
Sackboy is a great game...shame I can't get enough orbs to access last world..
I confess,I like Ariana and her music...well SOME of it.Can't really understand the hate.
"Perhaps, if you won't listen to us, you'll listen to Ariana Grande."
Wouldn't count on it kiddo.
@NemesisSam30 lets be honest here.. im no Ariana fan in terms of her genre of music - but talentless? Wow. You know Sir Paul has worked with her right? I think he knows talent a bit better than some opinionated doofus on the internet.
There's always stupid comments on here and id agree if the article was about some streamer who cant be bothered to get a real job or some shill "influencer" who but that takes this weeks top effort.
Well done for the late entry.
All the Pete Davidson fans be representing in the comments today. π
Meanwhile I took a dump this morning.
Really, this is news?
Pathetic
@NemesisSam30 You cared enough to comment. I don't think I've ever seen such a pretentious 'ReAL MuSiC iS StRaIgHt OlD WhItE MeN WiTh GuItArS' post on here.
The title of the article was clear what it was about. So don't click on it if you don't want to read more. It's not clickbait.
It's like opening a Dark Souls article and complaining about it being about Dark Souls because you have no interest the game. Just read something else you ducknuggets.
I literally ordered this last night and itβs coming today! I was holding out until I got a PS5 but that could be ages so caved and bought the PS4 version.
I hear that Thom Yorke likes to play his Switch while on the bog
saw the comments coming from a mile off lmao
not that i love ariana grande or anything, but holy crap guys, let people like stuff. people like celebrities. not everyone voluntarily lives in a cage in their basement. good god
@Rob3008 This x100
@Nightcrawler71 I played the PS4 version on one occasion and while it lacks some of the cool fine details in some environments, it's still great
Slow news day huh?
@orson you proud of that one, mate? gonna stand by that then?
@orson Thatβs horrific. What a piece of excrement.
"I don't like her. So, she's nobody"
She's pretty big here in the US. I would say she's a definite A-lister and for the dev team to get a random shoutout, would be really pretty cool for them. If you don't care, NOT leaving a comment is literally the least you can do. It requires 0 effort to not comment. Also, wishing cancer on anyone is real ***** up, bud.
I'm completely out of touch but I've heard of her, so she must be at least a little famous.
Zero f*cks given.
Wow, what a toxic comments section today. Applause
I'm impressed. I'm not exactly the most fly and groovy fella around and I'm not always hip to what the kiddos are listening to, what with their wrapping musics and whatnot. And some of you lot are actually more out of touch than I!
I feel 10 again!
@GamesVanDerBeek I think she has a some really nice songs and a pretty girl nothing too hate for me. Then again why hate such a young artist who did nothing wrong.
@Nightcrawler71 I bought the PS4 version just for the sackboy doll. π€ͺ
@Rob3008 I love metal, pop, punk, jazz, classic there is way too much great music too stay stuck on one kind of music. But i dont understand the hate towards white males? So as a white guy i want too tell get over yourself. I cant help it that im white and straight and i believe that everyone deserves happiness regardless of color, sexual oriΓ«ntation, religion as long as they dont harm others.
I don't think talent is a thing, it's just dedication or production, sometimes both. Not sure if she writes her own music or what, but I'm certainly not going to ill wish either way. Hope the haters here get a much needed dose of self love, it will really extinguish the need for negative mind set
This comment section...π€·ββοΈ
I like this kind of article. These are the ones that usually generate comments that result in me hitting "ignore" a lot.
Life is too short.
@Shepherd_Tallon Good advice, I'll ignore you.
I've done that loads of times and you didn't write an article about me. Bet she didn't eat a whole 14 inch pizza and cheesy chips while she was playing it either.
Ariana was playing the night of the Manchester bombing. She then came back and played a tribute concert.
All you haters get a life. Her concert was targeted by an ISIS cell. And she's still pumping out tunes. And playing sackboy.
@Turbodream πππ Ya got me. Ya got me good... Hello??? HELLLOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
@fR_eeBritney Performance wise, NO! Britney was the ish during her prime!
Pushsquare; 'Tom Cruise has said how much he likes his PS5...'
Comments: 'Not another z-lister loser...'
@themcnoisy That's a fair point. I think a lot of folks forget about that.
Also, this potentially is a promoters dream. Get some more adverts with another mega star out there, pushing the PlayStation brand even further as a household name.
@themcnoisy
Well said so you haters go fack yourselfs.
I think she also raised lots of money as well during that come back concert and got a lot of other stars involved for charity.
As for PS5 itβs the console of choice really, enough said.
@stupidget talk to any kid. I have some. They and all their friends love Ariana Grande.
She also has a high profile in the UK due to the Manchester bombing and is clearly a well known name in the world.
This is good marketing for Sony whichever way you swing it.
Edited:....... Ehh.... Errrrr bites tongue
I will never understand the mindset of people who need validity from celebrities or influencers to make their own decisions. Arianna is a product, being used to sell products, to generate money for their brands. Nothing more. Every post made or interview done by a celebrity is to generate social media points, all they care about is good PR.
Let's be serious, the negative comments are way worse on this celebrity news because she's a women.
Love Arianna Grande. Love this story.
@themcnoisy To see her share the stage with Coldplay playing Oasis was a beautiful thing.
Is this the broad that was spitting on donuts?
This comment section turned out exactly as I expected it to. Anyway, I'm neutral on Ariana - not listened to much of her stuff - but she's clearly not a z-lister. She's one of the biggest solo artists going at the moment.
@Aaronzord Nice Sana pic, bro.
@solocapers Sorry for saying the words everyone wishes they had the balls to themselves.
